Who needs this? (Score 1)

I apologize if I am obtuse on this (as may be the case) But I just don't see how netflix on a phone is even useful. The idea of watching a full-length movie on it is not appealing to me. Also, streaming over 3g is going to eat up battery life (and your data cap) quicker than anything else. Using it on wi-fi makes sense, but if I 'm near wi-fi why don't I just watch on my laptop/iPad?
